Our annual Dance Showcase once again lit up the stage with energy, passion, and extraordinary talent from students across Years 7 to 12. With a diverse range of performances in classical ballet, hip hop, contemporary, lyrical, jazz, and tap, the evening was a true celebration of the creativity and discipline that defines our dance program at Sandringham College.
We extend our deepest thanks and congratulations to Jess Mortlock, Director of the Sandringham College Dance Academy, who delivered her first Showcase in the role this year. Her incredible dedication, flawless organisation, and inspiring leadership have elevated the experience for both students and audiences alike. Jess has been a role model to our young dancers and a driving force behind the professional standard of this year’s event.
Our talented performers from both the Dance Academy and VET Dance programs delivered magnificent performances that reflected months of hard work and commitment. The quality of movement, technique, and stage presence was exceptional and a credit to the students and their teachers.
We would also like to thank our amazing Academy teaching team — Matt, Bri, and Lucy — for their ongoing commitment, creativity, and care. Special thanks also go to Emmalee, our VET Dance teacher, for her continued support and challenging our senior dancers.
The 2025 Dance Showcase was more than just a performance — it was a celebration of growth, artistry, and the thriving dance culture within our college. Looking forward to another spectacular show at our end of year Showcase.
